Colts/Saints Does 16-0 come with a Price?

  • Footwedge
    Do the Colts rest starters after locking down home field? Same deal with Saints. Looking over the schedules, both teams could very well run the table.

    I think the Saints or Vikings would like to play the NFC title game in their own dome.

    As for the 72 Dolphin Alumnae.....not gonna be too happy if 2 teams come into the Big Bowl at 18-0.

    I'd LOVE to see it come down to Colts/Saints for the Super Bowl and both be undefeated. But it won't happen. Would love to see one of them go undefeated though--I'm so sick of hearing about the 72 Dolphins and all the douche bags that played on that team that don't want to see another team go undefeated...really? LOL, that's just sad, who cares? It wouldn't take away from what they accomplished. Mercury Morris is a tool.

    I agree with all of this.

    I would like for both to be undefeated going into superbowl but if the colts lose during regular season, I also want the Saints to lose. The Saints are my favorite team and I don't want the pressure of undefeated to be solely on them and have them lose in playoffs. I don't care what the record is as long as they win a superbowl.

    Dungy won a SB but a few of his teams disappointed come post season and he usually rested guys late in the season. Dont know what Caldwell will do

    Im a proponant of keep on playing and putting the pressure on. Ya cannot just simply flip the switch off and on in sports....better to keep going on then throttle back and sit guys.

    I think the Colts end up resting their guys at the end of the season and lose a game or two. Manning is smart enough to know what the real prize is, and if he thinks resting better prepares him for the playoffs, that's what he will do.

    The Saints are in a different situation, as the Vikings are on their heels. They want home field advantage, and they might have to win out to get it.

    I am hoping Dallas can be the one to end things for the Saints.

    I don't mind if Indy goes undefeated to the Super Bowl. But of all the teams in the league that DESERVE to go undefeated and win the Super Bowl, it's the Saints. Those fans deserve it. One of the worst teams, in history, to have an undefeated championship season, would be great retribution for them.

    I think there is a certain "sharpness" that comes with fighting for your playoff life, i.e., Arizona and Pittsburgh last season.

    Do you realize you just called the only undefeated team to win a Superbowl a bunch of women right? Alumni is the proper word. Alumnae is 1st declension (and thus feminine) plural nominative.

    They are a bunch of girls. Screw them. Never seen a more annoying, selfish group of douche bags in professional sports. I guess I shouldn't include all of them, but until someone steps up and tells Morris to shut his mouth he will speak for all of them. They really root against guys playing now to lose games and not go undefeated...that's pathetic.

    I agree. Their Jealousy is very pathetic.
